Rich,

Welcome to the club.

Give Essco a call for the Ovhl Manual.

ESSCO (Fairchild Aircraft & Engine Manuals) http://www.esscoaircraft.com

Toll Free 877-318-1555





In regard to your mount options. The PT mount will not work, four point vs.
five point attach at the firewall.



You can use the beams for a starter on the F-24 mount. The club has good
drawings of the mount. They are on the Fairchild Club CD Rom.



I have the Ranger Engine Mount Jig for the club use. You can use or I will
make a mount if you give me lots of lead time.



The PT cowling will not work with the exception of the nose bowl.



As for the conversion, follow the Type Cert, same for both.
